Calcitonin for myositis ossificans.

R G Bethel, D M Doran.   

Abstract

A case of myositis ossificans, following a hemiparesis due to a cerebral haemorrhage and treated with synthetic slamon calcitonin, is described. An improvement in joint range and a cessation of further ectopic calcification was seen but, because of the remitting nature of myositis ossificans itself, the therapeutic role of calcitonin in this case is unproven.
